Holtby determined to fight for his place at Tottenham

Tottenham midfielder Lewis Holtby is determined to fight for his place in the team and hopes to become a fans favourite at White Hart Lane this season.

The German international has failed to start a league game this season and looks to have fallen down the pecking order following the summer arrivals of Paulinho, Etienne Capoue, Nacer Chadli, Erik Lamela and Christian Eriksen.

Andre Villas-Boas has spent over £100m on new signings following the departure of Gareth Bale and has transformed the team over the summer.

But despite the number of new arrivals, Holtby says he is determined to show he is good enough to start every game.

Holtby said: "I want to show what I'm capable of, what I can do, to score as many goals as possible, to have good performance and especially to give the fans a show."
